2010s Alex Scott Esquire-Style Electric Guitar

Overview: Alex Scott was building guitars in North Carolina through the last 10 years or so. This one's date mark on the back of the headstock is a little obscured but it looks like 2018, perhaps. It's a rock-solid instrument and, while a bit on the heavy side, it also certainly lays down a heavy sound when driven.


Interesting features: It's very simple with only one humbucker pickup and a volume and tone control. Clearly, this is meant to be rocked by a lead guy or a crunchy rhythm player.


Repairs included: Sarah gave it a level/dress of the frets, cleaning, and a good setup and it's playing spot-on and fast.

Condition notes: It has a little usewear via scratches, scuffs, and whatnot throughout the body and neck but it doesn't detract from the vibe. It gives it a little "lived-in" fun. The hardware has some oxidation on its surface which gives it a bit of an aged look.


It comes with: Sorry, no case.
